Respiratory medicine deals with conditions of the chest, which include things such as asthma, tuberculosis, cystic fibrosis, pneumonia and lung cancer.

The symptoms below can all be signs of problems in your chest or lungs, so if you’re experiencing any of these you’ll probably want to arrange to see a doctor and have things checked out for your peace of mind. Common symptoms of a problem in the chest include:

Mild to severe shortness of breath

Wheezing

A prolonged or chronic cough

A tightness or pain in your chest

At Circle Bath, we regularly see and help people just like you who may be needing:

Treatment for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)

Management of asthma

Treatment for lung cancer

Tuberculosis treatment

Your consultations and treatment will be carried out by the specialist respiratory team here at Circle Bath. All our staff are experts in problems and diseases of the chest and are dedicated to getting you treated and fully recovered quickly and safely.

Here at Circle Bath, we’ll make sure that you always receive the best treatment possible for any chest problems. Get in touch today to see how we can help.

We know that having a chest problem can often be very worrying. That’s why here at Circle Bath we will:

diagnose and treat your chest problem fast: so you don’t have to feel anxious any longer

help you to quickly recover: so that you can get back to enjoying life

When you book an appointment with us, you’ll be seen by one of our friendly consultants who specialise in problems of the respiratory system. All of them have many years of experience treating people with symptoms just like yours.

They’ll have a chat with you about your symptoms and your previous medical history to get a thorough understanding of things, and will talk through any concerns or worries you may have.

They’ll probably want to carry out an examination and may use a stethoscope to listen to your chest as you breathe in and out.

Depending on your symptoms, they may like to carry out some additional tests to help them assess things more accurately.

At Circle Bath, we have a wide range of state-of-the-art diagnostic equipment to ensure you’ll receive a fast and accurate diagnosis.

These additional tests won’t necessarily be required, and the consultant may want you to have additional tests that aren’t listed above (any tests will be thoroughly explained to you beforehand so that you know how the tests will be carried out and why they’re being done).

We believe in giving you a quick, accurate diagnosis. After all, why should you have to wait for a fortnight for your results to come back? (A longer wait for results means additional worry for you, which is something that you just don’t need)

After your appointment, the consultant may decide that treatment can be provided by medication (for example an inhaler) or some other fairly straightforward means.

If it’s determined that further investigation or surgery will be required, the consultant will talk you through the process thoroughly and answer any questions you may have.

If you do require treatment for a problem in your chest, we believe you’ll find no better place to come for expert help than Circle Bath.
